Hey guys im looking to have some eagle eye x6 heatsinks made for the current GB and i want to hear some input on how many i should have made ect..........
:Note the top of the HS is notched for a O-Ring
Would u guys like it to be one piece or have it 2 pieces for use with a reflector ???
like this below
if using a Ledil Cute-3 optics for a build u can put the HS like this >
Depends on quantity i think i can get them for around $15-20 each being copper
I would be interested in a couple. Suggestion though....because of the mass there will be more than plenty to transfer heat. 6061 Aluminum should cut your costs way down...not just for material costs but also production time. It is easier and quicker to get a finish on 6061 than copper.
At 50 pieces he quoted me $10 each on aluminum and i can do for say 30pcs of aluminum and 20 copper but it will be more than the cost of aluminium ? I'm not a machinist but is $10 fair or should i look into someone else
$10 is very fair. I thought about making my own but if I can buy them at $10 it just is not worth it for me to make my own or for anybody to try and lose some fingers.
1 aluminum quad for me please. It would be really neat to have holes drilled and tapped for the screws that come with the X6 to screw the star to the heat sink. Might be a PITA for various builds though. At any rate I’m up for at least one for now.
I don’t recall at this moment all of the headaches that Dale experienced squeezing an MTG2 into his but the idea of this light with an MTG2 and a TIR is intriguing to me. Perhaps with this TIR Like Ouchyfoot did with his Convoy M1 then it could just be easier to get the M1 and a slug of copper.
-just thinking out loud. Carry on.
